I'd like to put up an Eoceratops page, but the name redirects to this one. However, this article has no mention of Eoceratops. Shouldn't there be something on this page if there's a redirect? How do I cancel a redirect to set up a new page? CFLeon 22:02, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
Here's a new development, by Stefan Thompson and Robert Holmes in Palaeontographica Electronica: [1] It's nominally about C. irvinensis, but it has implications for all horned dinosaurs. They favor a half-sprawl, something not entirely unlike Bakker's "semi-erect" crocodiles. Kind of a crouch, really. J. Spencer 19:19, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
I have a personal record of another species, C. kaiseni. Can anyone else verify this? Ninjatacoshell 19:24, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
At the Museum Of Nature in Ottawa, Canada there are several model Chasmosauruses irvinensis shown without horns over their eyes, and plaque which reads "Unlike its larger cousin Triceratops, Chasmosaurus had only a single horn on its snout". This article describes only three-horned ones. Are there sub-species? Unregistered User, Kie, 22.15 30 April, 2007 (UTC)

The recognition that Chasmosaurus kaiseni is not congeneric with Chasmosaurus casts serious doubts on the hypothesis of sexual dimorphism for Chasmosaurus. Lehman (1990) considered C. kaiseni to be a junior synonym of Eoceratops canadensis (as C. canadensis). The provisionally referral of C. kaiseni to Mojoceratops could explain the differences from C. belli, because the holotype of C. kaiseni (AMNH 5401) was reconstructed in plaster (Longrich, 2010). Perhaps Chasmosaurus is not sexually dimorphic after all.
